Talking FAVOURITE ROADS

When you fancy a blast in your scoob which road do you always head for?
Mine is the A4069 over the Black Mountains which Top Gear have used quite a lot to test cars on

don't always head for them but a few roads that i have found to be a great drive are

A68 from scotch corner to the english scottish boarder is a good run. (its not bad after that but there are thousands of speed cameras)

also wyrose and hardknot pass in the lakes

also the "flying mile" B5057 between chesterfiled and Darly dale

Why take your scoob on a straight road? Scoobs are all about power and grip see it pointless just taking them in a straight line IMO Plus nobody should be racing on a public road anyway
